This week we are challenging you to create something using a resist technique.

Resist It

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away a $50 gift voucher to one randomly selected winner to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

It is Amber's last week with us in the Designer Spotlight and we would like to say a huge thank you for all of your fabulous projects that you have shared with us over the past few weeks, It has been a great pleasure to have you along with us again !

My nephew has just bought his first home in Holland, quite an achievement, so I made thus card for him :-) Congratulations Niels!! He is a civil engineer so I thought something with a road on it would be appropriate ;-)

For this first one I coloured the cute little images with Copic Markers and used a Nuvo Glitter Pen and Glossy Accents on the egg yolks

and I finished the inside colouring a little bit with pencils.

For this 2nd one I used Candied Apple and Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Inks for the background

I die cut the base layer of the sentiment out of the card and inlaid the sentiment 'perfectly' ;-) I used some Tim Holtz Label Letters to complete the sentiment and faux stitched around the edges using a Copic Multiliner Pen. To add more definition I also went around the edges of the die cut using the pen.

I used the excess ink for the inside but then left it plain for a handwritten note of encouragement. The strive for perfection IS optional!! ;)

Thanks for looking!

I am currently in Malta airport about to board a flight to on my way London where I have an overnight stop before travelling to Simon HQ on Friday!! SUPER EXCITED!!!

I will add a link list when I arrive in London, I don't want to miss my flight!! ;-)

About Me

I have been crafting as long as I can remember, knitting, sewing, glass painting, and then I discovered cardmaking and papercrafts and all my other hobbies have been abandoned :-) This is so addictive and you will find me in my craft room most of the time :-) Thanks to Alison for introducing me to this !!! :-)
